After a wonderful year full of science and sharing, Loria wishes you an excellent year in 2025, at the heart of computer science research!
A fundamental part of artificial intelligence, natural language processing tools are the subject of much enthusiasm, but there are also concerns surrounding them. By studying the way in which they reproduce and amplify stereotyped biases, Karën Fort, professor in Computer Science at the Université de Lorraine and at Loria, and a member of the team Semagramme (a joint undertaking Inria, the Université de Lorraine and the CNRS ), is seeking to understand the role played by ethics in the design, development and use of these tools.
Congratulations to the BACK IN TIME team, who were awarded the Historia Prize for Innovation and the Historia Grand Jury Prize.
Next Loria colloquium will take place on Tuesday, 10th December at 1:30 pm in the Amphitheater.
We will have the pleasure to welcome Jean Cardinal, professor at the Université Libre de Bruxelles, with a presentation (in English) entitled “Combinatorics, Geometry, and Algorithms“.
The MALINCA (MAthematicae LINgua franCA) project, led by Philippe de Groote, Hugo Herbelin, Paul-André Melliès and Carlos Simpson, has won the ERC Synergy Grant 2024 call for projects. Explanation of the scientific stakes by two of the principal investigators: Hugo Herbelin, senior researcher in the PICUBE joint project-team (Université Paris Cité, CNRS, Inria) and Philippe de Groote, head of the SÉMAGRAMME joint project-team (Université de Lorraine, CNRS, Inria) at the Loria laboratory.
